BURNER,

ticularly to attachments or primary genera- Y tors therefor, and some ofthe objects-of the invention are to provide a device of this ch aracterwhich will be simple and chea in construction, and, at'the sametime, ecient in operation.

Another ob'ect of the invention is to provide an attac ment which willperform the function of a 'rimary generator, and also that of an a'liary'heater, while permitting of the unimpaired and complete operationof the burner proper.

With these, and other, objects in view, the invention consistsessentially in the construction, combination and arrangement of partssubstantially as more fully described in the following specification,and as illustrated in the accom anying drawings, forming part of thisapp ication, in which Figure 1 is a side elevational view of a burnerequipped with one form of this invention; Fig. 2 is a similar viewshowing the attachment in use as an auxiliary heater; Fig.

3'is a sectional viewtaken on line3-3 of Fig. 2; Fig. 4 is a sectionalview taken on line 44 of Fig. 2; Fig. 5 is aafragmental, detail viewillustrating the support and connection with the burner; Big. 6 is aview similar to Fig. 1 illustrating a modified form of construction;Fig. 7 is a transverse sectional view taken on lines 7-7of Fig. 6; Fig.8 is a sectional view taken on line 8-8 of Fig. 6; and Fig. 9 is asectional view taken on line 9-9 of Fig. 6.

Similar characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughoutthe several views.

Referring to the drawings, and particu larly to the constructionillustrated in Figs. 1 to 5 inclusive, the reference character 1.designates a oylindricalor main portion of the burner, on which isformed or connected generating chamber 2, preferably providedSpecification of Letters Patent.

with a continuous passage or bore 3, Figs. 1 to 4, with whichcommunicate a lateral opening or passage 5, terminating in a hollowinteriorly threaded boss or tubular extension 6, constructed to beconnected with the fuel supply, as will be readily understood. Formedon, or adjacent to, the cylindrical portion 1, is a tube or hollowextension 7, the bore whereof communicates with the bore in the mixingchamber 2, and formed on, or. connected with, said tube is a burner jet8, in communication with the bore of said tube and having a suitablevalve. and valve rod as shown at 9, Figs. 1 and 2. A shield or trough 10may be removab'ly or otherwise connected with the .main or body portionof the burner, and may extend beneath the tube 7, and is constructed toreceive and direct the heating medium against the main'or body portionof the burner for the purpose of heat ingl or volatilizing the liquidfuel therein, as wi be understood by those skilled in the art to whichthis invention appertains. Suitably connected with thetube 7 is an.elbowor other connection 11, of any preferred construction, to which ismovably-connected one end of a' pipe 12, preferably curved substantiallyas shown at 13, and desirably terminating in a burner 14, and a burnerti 15, Fi s. 1 and 2. Formed on or connecte with t e burner (jet 8 is asocket or bracket 16, constructs to removably receive one end of asupporting bracket or skeleton frame 17, designed to support the articleto be heated by the auxiliary burner or immediate generator,

as subsequently more fully explained.

The operation of the invention hereinbefore described will be readilyunderstood from the foregoing description, when taken in connection Withthe accompanying drawing and the following explanation thereof. Theparts being in position illustrated in Fig. 1 the valve 9 is opened anda ortion of the liquidfuel is allowed to enter t e burner tip 15,whereupon a lighted match or other flame is applie to said tip, therebyheatin the same and volatilizing the liquid fue therein, which isreadily accomplished by the use of one match or one ap lication offlame; whereupon the volatilize medium passes from said tip into themain portion of the auxiliary burner and thence into the shield 10,which directs the heating medium against the main or body portion of theburner,

' thereby heating or volatilizing the fuel thereo 1, in the usualmanner.

. auxiliary burner is swung up into the position illustrated in Fig. 2,the bracket orframe 17 having been placed in position shown in Figs. 2and 5, and the auxiliary heater or immediategenerator may then belighted or ignited in the same way and used to heat articles placed uponthe bracket 17.

Adverting to the construction illustrated in Figs. 6 to 9 of thedrawing, there is illustrated a modification of a constructionhereinbeforedescribed and shown, wherein the auxiliary heater or primarygenerator is formed on or connected with the pipe 7, and

is incapable of employment as an independent heater. This constructionis cheaper to manufacture and 'sim ler in construction than theconstruction st described. It is not desired to limit or confine thisinvention to the specific construction, combination and arrangement. ofparts herein shown and described, and the right is reservedto make allsuch changes in and modifications of, the same, as come Within thespirit and scope of this invention.

In a burner, a main cylinder, a generating chamber formed in the same, afeed opening for the cylinder, a tubular extension connected to thecylinder, aburner jet connected to said extension, a socket formed inthe burner jet, a bracket adapted to be supported in the socket,a valveto control the tubular extension, and a supplemental burner adapted tobe swung up at-amangle to the main cylinder, and beneath the bracket.

In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specificatiomin thepresence of two subscribing witnesses at Los Angeles, in the county ofLos Angeles, Stateof California this first day of A ril 1904.
